2010 OU Track & Field Guide

2010 OKLAHOMA TRACK & FIELD Dear Friends, I want to welcome you to another season with the University of Oklahoma Track & Field program. Entering my fifth year with the program, I look back at what we have accomplished and look forward with great promise as we continue to reach the standards of a powerful program. This is a place where the championships of the past are appreciated, but never do they obscure the pursuit of our next one. In 2009, six student-athletes received 13 All-America honors. Along with the All-America honors, four individual Big 12 titles and one NCAA Championship were won. Will Claye returns in 2010 looking to defend his NCAA triple jump crown while Ti’Anca Mock and Luke Bryant join Claye as returning Big 12 Champions.

Welcome from head coach Martin Smith

On the academic side, two of our student-athletes, Amy Backel and Mikaela Johansson, were named to the 2009 ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Cross Country/Track & Field teams. The two were also named Academic All-District as well. Sixteen of our student-athletes were named to the Academic All-Big 12 Track and Field teams. OU led the Big 12 Conference with four athletes attaining perfect 4.0 grade point averages. Back on the home track, our program was also lauded for its hosting and running of the 2009 NCAA Midwest Regional. Over 40 programs and 800 student-athletes descended upon Norman and left with high regard for the John Jacobs Track and Field Complex and the Oklahoma program. The championship attitude from the track and field season carried over to this past fall where the men’s cross country team had one of its finest seasons in program history. The group finished the highest its ever finished in Big 12 history when it took third in the conference. Bill Kogel was named Big 12 Newcomer of the Year and joined Kevin Schwab and Rob Sorrell in earning All-Big 12 honors. The team then took a program high second in the NCAA Midwest Regional before finishing 12th at the NCAA Championships. We look forward to welcoming 40 incoming recruits to the Sooner track and field family for the upcoming 2010 season. The quality and number of this nationally-ranked recruiting class reflects not only the hard work, but more importantly, the commitment to success on the part of the entire track and field staff. I am confident that these incoming student-athletes will not only succeed in the athletic arena, but will leave the University of Oklahoma having added to the excellence that our program known for. The 2010 coaching staff has two new assistants in Matt Kane and Jon Heath. An up-andcomer in the coaching world, Kane joins us from Barton County Community College where he was the head coach for three years. At Oklahoma, Matt will work with our men’s sprinters and hurdlers, a group I’m sure will have great success under his leadership. Another exciting year is upon us as we continue to reach the level of excellence that the University of Oklahoma aspires to enjoy. The OU Track & Field complex is the site of five home meets in 2010. I look forward to seeing you at the track this season in a race for yet another ano an no othe her er Big Big 12 2 title. tittle le. e.

360 All-americans | 400 Conference Titles | 31 NCAA Titles

¾·®³²¾²¯ð ®¾ ¯¼¹®»¯¸®

A HISTORY OF CHAMPIONS The track & field tradition at the University of Oklahoma is one that is steeped in history. Throughout its history, the OU track & field program has seen 360 All-Americans don the crimson and cream. Seventeen conference titles line the OU trophy case along with 31 NCAA national titles, 10 of which have come in relays. OU also lays claim as one of only four teams to sweep the 4x400-meter relay national championship in both indoor and outdoor, being the first to do so and doing so twice. As far as individual conference titles, Oklahoma’s athletes stake claim to 400 of them. From John Jacobs to J.D. Martin to Martin Smith, OU’s coaching history reads like a who’s who in the coaching industry. With the current state of the track & field program at Oklahoma, there is no doubt the history of OU will continue to grow.

6

Oklahoma teams have won 17 conference titles across track & field and cross country in six different conferences. Thirty-six Sooners have combined to capture 31 NCAA National titles, including 10 relay titles.

Eighty-five individual conference titles have been added by women in the history of the program.

The Oklahoma women’s program has had athletes receive All-America honors 137 times in its existence.

Sooner men have received 223 All-America honors, including 17 in the last two seasons.

Over 300 individual conference titles have been won by Oklahoma men, 315 to be exact.

A COMPLETE COMPL RESURGENCE

When he was hired as the sixth head coach in OU track & field history, Smith immediately raised the bar with his expectations. While some at the time thought Smith’s goals might have been impossible, it’s hard to argue with the results that Smith has produced in just two years at Oklahoma.

Since Martin Smith’s arrival prior to the 2006 season, the University of Oklahoma track & field program has come to realize a level of competitiveness it hadn’t seen in quite a long time.

From the turn of the century in 2000 to Smith’s first season in 2006, Oklahoma had just 21 student-athletes earn All-America honors. Since his hiring, 25 of Smith’s pupils have accounted for 47 All-America honors. In those same six years prior to Smith’s arrival, Oklahoma student-athletes claimed 20 Big 12 individual crowns. At Smith’s rate of 20 individual titles in his first four years with the program, the fifth-year coach is on pace to shatter that mark by 10 titles. The last four years have also seen a rewriting of Oklahoma’s record books as 27 Oklahoma program records have been broken and 211 top-10 marks have been recorded by student-athletes under Smith’s watch, with 101 of those coming in the outdoor season and 110 during the indoor.

CHAMPIONSHIP-WINNING ATTITUDE

A 29-year drought was ended when Oklahoma won the 2007 Big 12 Men’s Outdoor Championship crown. The celebration was sweet and well-deserved for a group of student-athletes who grew together throughout the season and truly represented a team effort. The Sooners racked up a program-record 110.5 points to bring a track and field trophy back to Norman for the first time since 1978. OU used a balanced effort to win the title, scoring 65.5 points in the field and 45 points on the track. Kevin Bookout, Shardae Boutte and Marcus Pugh led the men to the 2007 Big 12 title with individual event victories. Bookout won the men’s shot put, Boutte dominated the men’s triple jump and Pugh’s photo-finish win in the 100-meter dash put the team title in the hands of the Sooners before the meet concluded. Scottesha Miller won the women’s long jump, becoming the first freshman in conference history to achieve the feat. Over 60 percent of OU’s total was scored by its freshmen, sophomores and juniors, proving that the team would be one to reckon with for years to come.

Kevin Bookout and Shardae Boutte, respectively, made the shot put and triple jump a no-contest affair, proving that the Sooners were after more hardware and more respect. Boutte set the Midwest Region men’s triple jump record with a leap of 52-8.00 (16.05 meters) on his first attempt. The men’s 4x100-meter relay of Ronnie Pines, Marcus Pugh, Frankie Wright and Jacobi Mitchell also captured a regional victory with a come-from-behind effort. The Sooners scored 75.33 points to defeat Big 12 rivals Nebraska, which finished second with 60 points, and Texas Tech, which placed third with 58. Due to the team’s efforts, OU coaches reaped national awards. Martin Smith was named the Midwest District and Region Head Men’s Track and Field Coach of the Year. Dana Boone (men’s sprints) and Jeremy Fischer (men’s jumps) also earned region assistant coach of the year honors. When it was all done, the Sooners punched tickets to Sacramento for 14 men and eight women, a school-record total. No team in the country took more male athletes to the NCAA Championships.

The University of Oklahoma Athletics Department completed a $3.5 million renovation of the John Jacobs Track and Field Complex in the spring of 2004. The project included a 25,000-square-foot building connecting the Mosier Indoor Facility with the Everest Training Center. This new building includes track and field locker rooms, a sports medicine room and a video teaching room. In 2006, an area of the Mosier Indoor Facility was renovated for a weightlifting room to be used exclusively by OU’s track and field athletes. Additionally, the John Jacobs Track was altered and re-surfaced to create European Oval turns for a faster track and nine, 48-inch lanes of embedded urethane surface. Other improvements included upgrades of field event areas, placing them directionally north/south and east/west to take advantage of the best wind conditions. Included in the re-design of the field event areas was the addition of walkways that allow spectators to get closer to the action of all field events. New spectator seating for 2,000, new restrooms, concessions, a permanent scoreboard, sound system and the installation of championship lighting were also added to the facility.

The University of Oklahoma hosted the 2004 Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championships and the 2005 and 2009 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Midwest Regionals, receiving high praise from both competitors and spectators alike for its impressive facilities. The 2004 upgrade marked the third major renovation of John Jacobs Field since it was originally built in the 1950s. In the late 1970s, the oval was reconfigured to change to metric measurements. Following the 1988 season, the OU Athletics Department, in partnership with Oklahoma Centennial Sports, the local organizing committee for the 1989 U.S. Olympic Festival, began a $700,000 renovation to the facility. The facility served as the host of the Olympic Festival before hosting the 1990 and 1992 Big Eight Outdoor Track and Field Championships. The outdoor track facility was originally designed by longtime Sooner track and field coach John Jacobs in the 1950s. Jacobs served as OU’s track and field coach from 1922 to 1958, then continued to serve as associate head coach until his retirement in 1968. He was named to the Helms Foundation Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1957.

As part of the 2004 renovation of the John Jacobs Track and Field Complex, new facilites were added and others improved for the daily use of the cross country and track and field teams’ general operations. Other additions include a sports medicine and hydrotherapy area, men’s and women’s locker rooms, men’s and women’s coaches locker rooms, a team meeting room, concession areas, and restroom facilities for fans. The men’s locker room is named for Owen Hewett, a former manager and longtime supporter of the Sooner track and field teams. Hewett’s friends and former teammates funded the locker room to honor the San Antonio, Texas, native. These facilites were added to a building constructed to connect the Everest Training Facility, the OU football team’s indoor practice field and strength and conditioning center, with the Mosier Indoor Facility. The entire complex is one of the largest, and newest, in the nation devoted specifically to cross country/track and field teams.

Funded by major gift from Henry David and Ida Mosier, the Mosier Indoor Facility makes the Jacobs Complex one of the country’s most versatile for track and field training and competition. The facility was built in 1986 and features a six-lane, 220yard track with a Mondo surface. Prior to the start of the 2004 season a number of changes were made to the facility that relocated field event areas and created more room for spectator seating. Mosier is linked to the Everest Training Center by a connecting structure containing restrooms and concessions. The north end of the Mosier Facility opens onto John Jacobs Field, allowing athletes to warm up inside before competing outside and, when conditions are poor, the relocation of events. Henry D. Mosier passed away in 1966 followed by his wife, Ida, in 1976. The Mosiers left a major portion of their estate to the University of Oklahoma to benefit its students. In addition to the endowment of the track facility, a $1.75 million dollar gift was used in construction of a building and major scholarship programs for OU’s College of Pharmacy.

Oklahoma’s weight training program is a pioneer in the development of strength and conditioning, and is a vital part of the Sooners’ tradition of success. The OU strength and conditioning program utilizes its expertise along with a wide array of equipment and tests to produce national championship caliber athletes. Evaluation, goal-oriented programs, supervision and state-of-the-art facilities help Oklahoma athletes become bigger, faster, stronger and more flexible. With help from the program’s booster club, The Spike Club, the University of Oklahoma Track and Field program boasts one of the country’s largest track-specific weight rooms. The 3,760 square foot room is located within the Mosier Indoor Facility and is exclusive for track and field athletes at OU. Stocked with a variety of free weights and weight machines, the room gives OU track and field athletes the ability to freely engage in strength and conditioning exercises without other sports impeding the time. The room is also bolstered with the addition of another Spike Club purchase, a performance enhancing video training application called Dartifsh.

20

The objective of the strength and conditioning program is to ensure each student-athlete in every sport is provided with a sound inseason and off-season program. This program of activity includes strength, conditioning, flexibility and nutrition. A strength and conditioning coordinator for each sport is provided to assist athletes in reaching the highest possible training levels. The OU strength and conditioning staff takes great pride in providing a very intensive program that helps maintain greater overall body strength and conditioning levels during the season. By maintaining strength in the muscles and connective tissues throughout the season, the potential for injuries decreases. The off-season program is also extremely intensive. Speed, strength, power, agility, fundamentals and nutrition are addressed. The OU staff is committed to full compliance with NCAA rules concerning time allocation for student-athletes and voluntary workouts during off-season periods. The staff’s interaction with the nutritional consultants on campus is essential. The staff maintains an open channel of communication with the dining staff at the Wagner Dining Center. This interaction enables the strength and conditioning staff to ensure that OU athletes receive a winning edge with a sound nutrition program.

Complete athletically-related medical services are provided to Oklahoma student-athletes by team physicians and OU’s certified athletic trainers. The University of Oklahoma obtains the services of the best medical consultants available. The base of operation for the Sooners’ medical care is the state-of-the-art Henry J.

The Oklahoma Athletics Department feels a strong responsibility to help its athletes reach and maintain their optimum health and achieve conditioning goals. For this reason, OU has developed excellent training and conditioning programs to lessen the possibility of injuries. However, should injuries occur, the department is committed to a comprehensive rehabilitation program.

Head athletic trainer Scott Anderson says the addition to the Barry Switzer Center has allowed the university to upgrade to a new edition of rehabilitation equipment that can best benefit the student-athletes. From simple therobands to taping tables, the facility offers everything a school can have or hope to have. The Sooner training room is equipped to perform isokinetic joint evaluation for preventive medicine and for post-injury rehabilitation. The therapy room is supplied with the latest modalities on the market. “The addition of space is the greatest benefit,” says Anderson. “This space allows for dedicated rehabilitation and consultation to the athletes. An option with the facility is the water rehabilitation area. The athlete stands in a pool of water that is adjusted to his or her own physical needs. Cameras are then placed where physicians can monitor the progress made by the athlete on his or her road to recovery.” A total team effort is the key to OU’s efficiency in preventing, treating and rehabilitating injuries sustained by student-athletes. These measures keep Sooner athletes at their highest level of performance as they compete for championships. “Sports medicine is a team effort,” says Anderson. “The stated goal of athletic training at Oklahoma is, first of all, care for the student-athletes, thereby granting our sports a competitive advantage and ultimately greater esteem for the entire program. “To that end we are blessed with a full complement of self-sacrificing medical professionals working on a regular basis with our athletic training staff.”

The success that the University of Oklahoma has come to know on the sprinting scene has translated into accomplishments to be proud of in the hurdles. In 2008, Latoya Greaves made her first appearance on the Division I level after transferring from NAIA’s Oklahoma Baptist. The step up in competition did not deter the native Jamaican as the then-sophomore claimed the Big 12 Indoor Conference title in the 60-meter hurdles. Greaves transferred the momentum from the indoor season to the outdoor season where she claimed eight individual titles in the 100-meter hurdles, including wins at the Big 12 Conference Championships and the NCAA Midwest Regional, setting an Oklahoma program record in the process. Greaves would go on to claim NCAA All-American honors with a fifth-place finish at the NCAA Championships to become one of two OU hurdlers to earn the status in 2008, joining Sheldon Leith, who finished sixth in the 60-meter hurdles at the NCAA Indoor Championships. On the international stage, former Sooner Danny McFarlane followed up his second-place finish in the 400 hurdles at the 2004 Athens Olympics with a fourth-place finish in the 2008 Beijing Games. It was the seventh time for McFarlane to compete against the world’s best hurdlers as the Jamaican national had previously seen action in three IAAF World Championships and two IAAF World Athletics Finals.

A total of 176 student-athletes have earned All-America status with their participation on award-winning relay teams. Fifty-eight Sooner relay teams have captured conference titles throughout OU track and field history. In 1984, Aubrey Jones, Fonnie Kemp, Dannie Carter and Don Bly won the indoor and outdoor national titles in the mile relay, a first in NCAA history. In 1997, Edward Clarke, Danny McFarlane, Ryan Kite and Roxbert Martin repeated history made in ‘84, becoming one of only four teams ever to sweep the NCAA titles in the indoor and outdoor men’s 4x400-meter relay. In all, eight different relay teams have claimed national titles at Oklahoma. Relays in 2009 were once again a newsmaker as the women’s 4x100-meter relay and the men’s distance medley relay each broke program records en route to competition at the NCAA Championships. The quartet of Sherine Wells, Scottesha Miller, Leslie Cole and Ti’Anca Mock brought OU its latest All-America honors in the 4x100 as the four broke their own program record with a fourth-place finish in the event at the NCAAs. The foursome owns four of the six fastest times in program history as nine of the top-10 marks in program history have come in the last three years. It’s not just the collegiate level where Oklahoma athletes are making noise on the relay scene. Six former Sooners have earned medals in Olympic relay events, including J.W. Mashburn, who brought home two gold medals competing for the United States.

The latest Big 12 title came in 2009 as Luke Bryant produced the program’s 11th conference title in the men’s discus. Two athletes managed indooroutdoor record sweeps as Karen Shump (shot put) and Mikaela Johansson (weight/hammer throw) wrote their names in the OU record books, as did K.P. Singh in the weight throw. In 2008, the group had just three athletes yet managed to make some noise as Amy Backel, Johansson and Buck Sullivan all set OU program records. Backel, who broke her own javelin program record numerous times during the outdoor season, became the first OU woman to earn All-America honors in the event, finishing seventh at the NCAA Championships. 2007 alum Kevin Bookout closed his career with three All-America honors in the shot put despite only throwing one season of indoor shot while concentrating on basketball. The one indoor season Bookout did throw was fruitful, though, as the native Oklahoman won the 2007 Big 12 Indoor title along with his outdoor title that helped OU to its first conference title since 1978. Bookout’s outdoor title marked the second consecutive outdoor throws title for OU as former Sooner Cale Drumright claimed the 2006 Big 12 title in the javelin.

Since it began play in 1996-97, the Conference can boast of 31 team crowns and over 385 individual NCAA Championships. The success continued through the fall of 2008 as the league placed two teams in the Bowl Championship Series for the fifth time and will have a team play for the BCS National Championship for the sixth season. Sally Kipyego (Texas Tech) became the first NCAA Division I female or male runner to win three consecutive cross country national championships and the league has two of three finalists for the Heisman Trophy in Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) and Colt McCoy (Texas). Over the past four seasons a total of 12 NCAA trophies have been hoisted by Big 12 institutions, with at least one national crown won in all but one year for the Conference, including each of the past 11 seasons. In 2007-08, Kansas captured the Big 12’s first national title in men’s basketball, while the league added 31 individual crowns. The Big 12 leads all conferences with its six appearances in BCS title games. League squads have played for the football national championship six times in the last nine years with berths in 16 BCS games overall, including two in 2007 and 2008. The Big 12 led all conferences with four teams ranked in the Top 10 in the final national polls a season ago. In addition, an all-time high eight league players earned consensus AllAmerica recognition in 2007, more than any other conference. In basketball, nine men’s and women’s teams have advanced to their respective Final Fours in the past seven seasons as the Big 12 continues its place among the elite intercollegiate athletic conferences. The six men’s Final Four participants since 2002 is more than any conference. Numerous national honors have been won by basketball student-athletes during the league’s history, with Michael Beasley (Kansas State), D.J. Augustin (Texas) and Courtney Paris (Oklahoma) the most recent to garner accolades as consensus All-America in 2007-08. The Big 12 and its member institutions are committed to a competitive environment where sportsmanship and fair play take center stage. Whether on the field, in the classroom, or within the community the student-athletes, administrators, coaches and game officials of the Big 12 support the highest ideals in sportsmanship. Big 12 student-athletes also do well in garnering national academic recognition. Sarah Pavan (Nebraska) was named Academic All-America of the Year in volleyball the past two seasons by ESPN The Magazine and College Sports Information Directors of America with a 4.0 grade-point average in Biochemistry. She also won the national academic honor presented for all sports in 2006-07 and was named recipient of the prestigious 2006-07 Honda-Broderick Award as Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year. She is the first athlete since the Big 12 was formed to earn the accolade. In addition to his athletic accomplishments, Augustin was an Academic All-America First Team choice. In its history, the conference has over 300 academic honorees, averaging more than 25 each season. The Big 12 can boast of other stories that combine on and off the field success. Patience Knight (Texas Tech) was the recipient of the Honda Inspiration Award in 2008, given to an outstanding female college athlete who overcomes adversity to excel in her sport. She was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in 2007, but rebounded to win All-America honors at the 2008 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships. Competitive excellence, scholarship and sportsmanship are all equal components of the Big 12 philosophy. All-Big 12 teams and Academic All-Big 12 squads are recognized for each sport at the end of their respective seasons. At the end of each academic year, the Conference honors its top male and female student-athletes with the Big 12 Athlete of the Year and Big 12 Sportsperson of the Year awards. Institutions can also nominate student-athletes for the prestigious Dr. Prentice Gautt Postgraduate Scholarships at the end of each academic year. A total of 201 scholars have received over $1.2 million in postgraduate financial aid through the first 12 years of the program. The Big 12 sponsors 21 sports. Men’s squads include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, indoor track & field, outdoor track & field, swimming & diving, tennis and wrestling. Women’s teams are fielded in basketball, cross country, golf, gymnastics, indoor track & field, outdoor track & field, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis and volleyball.

Member schools include - Baylor University, University of Colorado, Iowa State University, University of Kansas, Kansas State University, University of Missouri, University of Nebraska, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, University of Texas, Texas A&M University and Texas Tech University. The institutions created a league that encompasses seven states, over 45 million people and television households in 18 of the top 100 markets within its geographic footprint. The conference conducts championships for 20 of its 21 sports. Each championship helps to determine teams and/or individuals that will represent the Conference in national postseason competition. The winner of the Big 12 football championship game earns the league’s berth into the prestigious Bowl Championship Series. In the last several years the Big 12 has increased its bowl agreements and expanded television opportunities for all sports through contracts with ABC/ESPN and FSN. Most recently, the league renewed and expanded its multi-year arrangement with ABC/ESPN, Inc. The new contract began in 2008-09.

SEASON PREVIEW

A cupboard of young talent returns to the University of Oklahoma men’s track and field team in 2010 as the 2009 team lost just five letterwinnners from the squad.

Another veteran in the OU sprints group, junior D’Andre Fisher enters his third year with the program and looks to continue his improvement at the hurdles while providing depth for relays.

Nineteen newcomers in 2010 will join with 14 returning letterwinners to form the nucleus of a team that is rounding into the all-around group that is needed to rack up the points and capture another conference crown.

Two returning athletes will be expected to provide points in the longer sprint events as Eric Bailey and Jarrell Warren specialize in the 400-meter hurdles and 400-meter dash, respectively. Both earned 2009 All-Big 12 honors as Warren finished fourth in the indoor 600-yard run and Bailey took sixth in the 400-meter hurdles.

OU returns seven NCAA Championship qualifiers, two All-Americans in Jacob Boone and Will Claye, two Big 12 champions in Luke Bryant and Claye and one NCAA champion in Claye.

The last returning member of the sprints group is sophomore Evan Pierson who saw limited action in 2010.

Men’s Sprints/Hurdles After not losing anyone from its roster, the OU sprints group could only expand in 2010 and expand it did. Under first-year coach Matt Kane, the group returns an NCAA qualifier in sophomore Mookie Salaam and adds an NCAA champion in junior Ronnie Ash. Ash, a transfer from Bethune-Cookman, claimed the 2009 titles in both the 60-meter hurdles and 110-meter hurdles. The three-time Mid-Eastern Atlantic Conference champion enters the 2010 season ranked No. 1 in the nation in both events and will lead the hurdles group. Salaam leads the way for the Sooners in the shorter sprints, after earning a spot in the NCAA Championships in both the 100- and 200-meter dash in his first year on the collegiate level. The Oklahoma native enters the season with the fourth fastest program times in both the 60-meter dash and indoor 200. The elder statesman of the group, senior Zach Dawson is an 11-time All-Big 12 Conference honoree. A strong competitor on the program’s relays, Dawson will also look to contribute in individual events as well.

44

Along with Ash, the group welcomes seven other newcomers -- two junior college transfers and five freshmen -- who accounted for seven state titles. Both junior college athletes, Malcolm Anderson and Remuro Henry, followed Kane from Barton Country Community College. Anderson earned 2009 NJCAA All-America honors in both the 55-meter and 110-meter hurdles while Henry took four NJCAA All-America honors and helped the program’s 4x100 relay to the NJCAA title. The freshmen are led by three-time Oklahoma state champion Nathaniel Winfrey, who looks to contribute in the hurdles department, as will twotime Virginia state champion Jeffrey Artis. A Texas state finalist, Trayvion Jones rounds out the hurdles group. Two freshmen round out the sprints group. Daniel Nix and Jermie Robertson enter college with a relay state title under their belts.

Men’s Distance The deepest group on the team, Martin Smith’s distance roster is loaded with a mix of upper and underclassmen. Led by a group of five veterans, the men’s distance program also returns five underclassmen and will be joined by four promising freshmen as well as three transfers.

University of Oklahoma Track & Field | 2010 Oklahoma Sooners


SEASON PREVIEW The men’s high jump will feature the return of Kevin Snyder, who has been hampered by injuries. He looks to return to the form that has earned him three All-Big 12 honors in his career.

Two other juniors from the record-breaking DMR that return, Scott Cooper and Chris Sweeney, will help to make up the middle-distance corps. Cooper earned All-Big 12 honors in 2009 when he finished sixth in the indoor 800.

Snyder will be joined an early-enrollee in Aaron Thompson who has finished in the top 10 in the last two California State Championships in either the high jump or long jump.

Rob Sorrell, the cross country captain, will provided valuable leadership on the track as well, having garnered All-Big 12 honors during both the 2009 indoor and outdoor seasons.

Men’s Throws

The lone senior in the group, Tony Clement enters 2010 with the secondfastest times in both the 1,000-meter and mile run in Oklahoma history.

Bryant, who ranks second in the Oklahoma program books in the discus, is one of two returning throwers to earn outdoor All-Big 12 honors. Colin Quirke finished eighth in the shot put to earn the honor as well. The Irish junior national record holder looks to expand on his first season in Norman that saw him redshirt the indoor portion of the schedule.

After the five returning upperclassmen, the focus of the distance group turns to five returning underclassmen led by Bill Kogel, the 2009 Big 12 Cross Country Newcomer of the Year, and sophomore Kevin Schwab, who was OU’s top finisher in four cross country events during the 2009 season. The group of returners is rounded out by Ross Larimer, Kels Moreland and Kevin Williams. Williams claimed top-30 finishes in both the Big 12 Championships and NCAA Midwest Regional during the 2009 cross country season. Two junior college transfers with championship experience join the group in 2010 as Eric Harasyn and Jeremy Sudbury come to Norman after leading Paradise Valley Community College to the 2008 NJCAA cross country title. The pair has seven NJCAA All-America honors between them. Clay Mayes is the third transfer, coming to OU from Oklahoma State where he earned 2009 All-Big 12 honors in the 10,000-meter run. Four freshman, Alex Balsiger, Patrick Gomez, Alex Muntefering and Bobby Nicolls, make their way to Norman with respected credentials and will look to provide depth while making the transition to the collegiate level.

¸±ðEò µ·±Â²±Ã

Jacob Boone leads the group as a returning All-American and the first runner in OU history to record a sub-four-minute mile. The junior is also one of four members of the distance medley relay that all return in 2010.

Under throws coach Brian Blutreich, the OU throws group continues to grow and now returns a Big 12 champion and NCAA qualifier in Luke Bryant.

A returning All-Big 12 thrower in the indoor season, K.P. Singh finished second in the weight throw and is in the driver’s seat for a Big 12 title as the top returning competitor in the conference. Three other throwers will make their collegiate debut after redshirting their first season in Norman. Conrad Aaron, Holden Mitchell and Curtis Mulkey will all compete after making the transition to college action. The javelin group is comprised of two returners who have top-five Oklahoma marks, a former SEC champion and the athlete who holds the No. 3 all-time U.S. mark in the new rule javelin. Sophomores Mark Costello and Benjamin Latham return in 2010 with the fourth and fifth, respectively, longest throws in OU history. Joining the two will be an NCAA All-American in Chad Radgowski, who redshirted last season after transferring from LSU. The senior claimed the honors in 2007 after winning the SEC Championship in the event.

Men’s Jumps Led by the defending NCAA outdoor national champion in the triple jump, Jeremy Fischer’s Oklahoma jumps group will again look to provide valuable points to team scoring.

The trio will be joined by promising freshman Justin Shirk, who enters college with three consecutive Pennsylvania state titles and a top mark of 235-3, the third-farthest high school new rule throw in U.S. history.

Will Claye returns as the NCAA outdoor triple jump champion and the indoor runner-up. Claye, a sophomore, also earned All-America honors in the long jump and will look to capture Big 12 titles in both events while maintaining his national presence.

Men’s Pole Vault

Another sophomore, Alex Madkins, returns after a summer that saw the Oklahoman finish third in the long jump at the USATF Junior Championships and fifth in the event at the Pan Am Junior Championships.

Pole vault returns to the Oklahoma program after a one-year hiatus with first-year assistant Jon Heath overseeing its progress. Heath brings in two pole vaulters from the state of Oklahoma in Cameron Roffey and Jonathan Webb. Both enter their freshman year after finishing in the top six of the Oklahoma State Championships.

A senior in his second year with the Oklahoma program, Neelon Greenwood returns with All-Big 12 honors after finishing eighth in the long jump at the outdoor championship meet. Rounding out the horizontal jumpers is Marco Moon who looks to improve on his 2009 season. 360 All-americans | 400 Conference Titles | 31 NCAA Titles

SEASON PREVIEW

The 2010 University of Oklahoma women’s track and field team looks to continue its recent streak of staying in the top half of Big 12 programs. The outlook remains positive for OU with 14 returning letterwinners along with 21 newcomers. The returning group includes five student-athletes who have accumulated eight All-America honors and five Big 12 titles in their Sooner career. Head coach Martin Smith and associate head coach Dana Boone have four NCAA qualifiers from last year returning in 2010. Women’s Sprints/Hurdles With just one senior from 2009 graduating, albeit a very talented one in Leslie Cole, Boone returns one of the most talented and deepest groups on the squad with a cast of 10 in 2010, including eight returning Sooners. With a hand in four program records, four-time All-American Scottesha Miller returns to lead the Sooner sprints program. Miller, who qualified for both the 100- and 200-meter dash, finished seventh in the 200 at the NCAA Championships for one of two All-America honors in 2009 along with the honor she earned as the second leg of the 4x100-meter relay. Two other members from the 4x100 relay that set the program record with a time of 43.58 return in the opening leg, Sherine Wells, and anchor leg, Ti’Anca Mock. Mock, who along with Miller excels in the jumps, provided a consistent strong finish to the 4x100 that now holds six of the top-10 times in program history. Wells provides speed on the relays, earning All-Big 12 honors in both the 4x100 and indoor 4x400. The sophomore will be counted on in the shorter sprints in 2010. After a year away from the program, Latoya Greaves returns to Norman to lead the hurdlers after winning Big 12 titles in the 60- and 100-meter hurdles in 2007. Greaves holds the OU record in the 100 hurdles. 46

A native Jamaican, Greaves will be joined by another Jamaican in Latoya Heath. A four-time All-Big 12 honoree, Heath finished second in both the 60- and 100-meter hurdles at last year’s Big 12 Championships Two sophomores with All-Big 12 honors to their credit return in Tiara Sims and Demeeka Jones. Sims finished sixth at the Big 12 Championships in the indoor 400-meter dash while providing help on the distance medley relay and 4x400 relay that claimed conference honors as well as the outdoor 4x400. Jones also finished in the top eight at a Big 12 event, taking seventh in the 100-meter hurdles at the Big 12 Championships and was a regional qualifier in the event. A three-year veteran of the program, Jalesa Walker rounds out the group of returning women sprinters. The seven-time All-Big 12 athlete provides valuable legs on a number of relays, including last year’s 4x400 relay that finished sixth at the Big 12 Indoor Championships and third in the outdoor meet. Only two newcomers, transfer Lanesha Pugh and freshman Marlena Wesh, join the group in 2010. Pugh, a native Oklahoman, comes to OU from Arizona where she earned four All-Pac 10 honors. Wesh joins the program with promising credentials, having won eight Virginia State titles throughout her high school career. Women’s Distance After losing just one senior from the 2009 group, Skip Pickens returns the core of his women’s distance group in 2010. Returning All-Big 12 athletes Kelly Waters and Jessica Engel lead the way. Waters provides the most experience at the longer distances, earning All-Big 12 honors with a fifth-place finish in the 5,000-meter run. The junior also ran the anchor leg of the distance medley relay that took sixth at the Big 12 Indoor Championships and finished sixth individually in the mile at the event.

University of Oklahoma Track & Field | 2010 Oklahoma Sooners


SEASON PREVIEW put, earning All-Big 12 honors in the event with a fourth-place conference finish in the indoor season and a sixth-place season during the outdoor season. With the top throws, Backel qualified as an at-large competitor in the event for the NCAA Outdoor Championships.

Lauren Watson brings depth in the longer distance races and is coming off a cross country season that saw the Oklahoma native lead the Sooners in four of the five meets.

The other returning Sooner with collegiate action is Katelyn Penner in the javelin. The 2009 first-year Sooner earned All-Big 12 honors in the event as she finished fourth in the event while claiming the third-longest throw in program history.

Two others from the 2009 season return this season, Natalie Crain and Lindsay Pierson. Crain provides competition in the middle distance events while the versatile Pierson could be used in a number of events. A transfer from Manhattan College, senior Ellen Dobbin enters the Sooner program after finishing second in both the 5,000-meter run and the 10,000-meter run at the 2008 MAAC Championships Three other newcomers join the program in Molly Ferguson, Erin Hargens and Tati Ogan. The three join the team with successful backgrounds and numerous high school state titles. Women’s Jumps Not too many teams can claim the return of two former conference champions in the long jump, but the Oklahoma women’s jump program can do just that with the return of 2009 Big 12 champion Ti’Anca Mock and 2007 Big 12 champion Scottesha Miller. Mock, who took over the program record in both the indoor and outdoor long jump, also accomplished the indoor-outdoor Big 12 title sweep in the event. The junior, who also sprints, showed her versatility by finishing fifth in the triple jump at the indoor conference meet. Another sprinter, Miller added All-Big 12 honors in the long jump in 2009 after finishing fifth in the event at the indoor championships and seventh in the outdoor meet. Another athlete who competes in the sprints, Latoya Heath competes in both the long and triple jump, regionally qualifying in the latter in 2009. The group welcomes four newcomers, three of whom are high jumpers. The lone horizontal jumper, Jasmine Simmons, comes to OU having won four NJCAA national titles, two each in the long jump and triple jump while at Barton County Community College. The high jump group will be comprised of three freshmen in Nichelle Johns, Kristen Rice and Chenale Smith. Women’s Throws Though small, with only six members, the OU women’s throws program appears strong in 2010 and for the future with four talented returners and two promising transfers.

︱ðEò µ·±Â²±Ã

Engel also earned All-Big 12 honors as a member of the sixth-place DMR. Engel closed out the outdoor season in a new event, the 3,000-meter steeplechase, narrowly missing Big 12 honors in the event by finishing ninth at the conference meet.

While she redshirted in 2009 and did not compete in any collegiate events, Karen Shump still represented the program at the USATF indoor and outdoor championships and earned shot put program records with her performance in each, finishing third and 10th, respectively. Like Shump, Tia Brooks also redshirted in 2009 and will compete in the shot put and weight throw among other events in 2010. The group welcomes two transfers in Brittany Borman and Kelsey Poljansek. Coming from UCLA, Borman earned All-Pac 10 honors in both the shot put and discus in 2009. Poljansek arrives from Central Florida where she competed for one year after winning four NJCAA national titles at Cowley College. Women’s Pole Vault With the return of the pole vault comes two new Sooners, a returning Sooner and a current Sooner who is new to pole vaulting. Freshmen Jacy Bennett and Christina Flandrick join the program from the high school ranks where the two put together consistent performances. They will be joined by Sarah Pappas, who originally began her career at OU before transferring to the University of Washington and returning to Norman for the 2010 season. A current OU athlete, Carli Wester shifts from the long jump to the pole vault where she will redshirt the indoor season during the transition. Women’s Multis Also returning in 2010 is the multi-event program led by assistant coach Jeremy Fischer. Fischer will have a cast of five freshmen and one talented transfer in Charlotte Lund-Abrahamsen. The transfer from Memphis earned All-America honors in the pentathlon in 2008 and added All-Conference USA honors in the shot put and javelin. Lund-Abrahamsen holds the NCAA record in the shot put for pentathletes. She will be joined in the multis program by Kristen Carson, Chelsea Goodman, Natasha Kotey, Claire McConnell and Taylor Wyatt. All five spent their high school careers participating in a range of events that will prepare them for the collegiate level of competition in the multis.

Amy Backel is the group’s lone returning All-American, having captured a javelin honor in 2008. An elbow injury stopped the 2009 javelin season for the senior before it even started, however Backel still competed in the shot

Martin Smith was hired as the University of Oklahoma’s sixth head track and field coach in June 2005 with the expectation that good things would happen. And great things did. In the four years under Smith’s guidance, 27 of the program’s individual event or relay records have been broken, 47 NCAA All-America honors have been earned and 20 Big 12 titles have been won in individual or relay events along with the 2007 Big 12 men’s conference title. The past three seasons have seen the program hit double-digits in All-Americans each year including 13 in 2009, upping Smith’s career total to 228. The latest class was led by the first OU NCAA Champion under Smith in triple jumper Will Claye. The season also gave the program four Big 12 champions. The fall of 2009 saw Smith and his OU cross country charges record their best season yet as the men’s team recorded its highest finish ever in the Big 12 Championships when it took third. The group followed that up with a second-place finish at the NCAA Midwest Regional before finishing 12th at the NCAA Championships. Three Sooners, Kevin Schwab, Rob Sorrell and Bill Kogel, claimed All-Big 12 honors as Kogel was named the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year. The trio, along with Jeremy Sudbury, were also named All-Midwest Region. In 2008, Smith once again hit double digits in All-Americans as 10 athletes earned the honor. The season was also highlighted by a combined four Big 12 titles from hurdler Latoya Greaves and triple jumper Shardae Boutte. The 2007 season came as a surprise to the track and field world as all six men’s and women’s cross country, indoor track and field, and outdoor track and field teams improved on their previous finishes. The men’s team shocked the conference when it won its first Big 12 Outdoor Championship title, the team’s first conference championship since 1978. It was Smith’s 25th conference championship as a head or assistant coach in 28 years on the Division I level. The team didn’t rest on its laurels, winning its first Midwest Region title two weeks later. Accolades swarmed to Smith, who was named Big 12 Men’s Outdoor Track and Field Coach of the Year and the Midwest District and Region Men’s Head Coach of the Year by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association. In all, 16 Sooners combined for 22 NCAA All-America honors during the year - the most Smith has coached in a single season. Oklahoma took a program-record 22 athletes to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. The 14 Sooner men who competed represented the largest number from a single men’s team in 2007. The postseason proved to be successful, too, as Kevin Snyder won the U.S. Junior National high jump crown and earned a silver medal at the Junior Pan American Games. Smith’s first season, in 2006, saw exceptional development as the women’s team tied for fourth overall at the Big 12 Indoor Championships and the men’s team finished fifth outdoors, both program-best finishes at the time. Under Smith, Jessica Eldridge became only the sixth Sooner woman to earn AllAmerica honors in cross country and the first since 1994, when she finished 18th at the NCAA Championships in the fall of 2006. Eldridge also posted the best ever finish by a Sooner at the Big 12 Championships when she ran fourth.

Head Coach

Smith, 57, has been head cross country coach or head cross country and track and field coach at George Mason, Virginia, Wisconsin and Oregon, where he was director of men’s and women’s track and field and cross country from 2003 through March 2005. He was men’s track & field and cross country head coach at UO from 1998-2003 before assuming control of all track and field/cross country programs. “This is a very exciting day for our track & field and cross country programs,” OU Director of Athletics Joe Castiglione said upon his hiring. “Martin Smith has earned the respect and admiration of many throughout the national and international track and field communities. He has an impressive record of achievement everywhere he has been. His student-athletes excel both on and off the track and understand that the championship mentality can apply to all of their life’s pursuits. “His professional and personal references led us to the conclusion that he is the person who can best represent the values of our program and can build a program of national stature. We look forward to having him join our Sooner family.” Smith guided Oregon to nine NCAA top 20 team finishes, while mentoring individuals who claimed 48 All-America honors and 17 Pac-10 titles. In his final season, the 2004-05 indoor campaign, Smith led the Duck men to a sixth-place finish at the NCAA meet, tops among the Pac-10 schools. UO sent nine qualifiers to the NCAA National Championships with eight earning All-America honors.

Oregon realized outdoor success under Smith, too. The men’s team was second, first and second in his last three Pac-10 meets and was ninth at the 2004 NCAAs. Other strong finishes with the Ducks included a 13th place finish at nationals in the 2003 NCAA Outdoor and a 2003 men’s Pac-10 Outdoor title (the first for UO since 1993). In the fall of that school year, the Oregon cross country team was fifth at nationals. The 2002 indoor men’s team was ninth at the NCAA Championships and Smith earned conference and region coach of the year honors. In 2001, Smith led Oregon’s men to a ninth-place finish at the NCAA Outdoors.

Smith, who has coached five national championship teams during a 30-year tenure on the NCAA Division I level, became the University of Oklahoma’s sixth head track and field coach in June 2005.

Prior to his move to Oregon, Smith spent 1983-98 coaching the men’s cross country team at Wisconsin, while serving as assistant men’s track and field coach. He coached two men’s national championship cross country teams there (1985, 1988), and his teams won 12 Big Ten titles. Thirty-three of his runners were AllAmericans and one was the national champion. On the track, Smith helped UW to 10 NCAA top 20 finishes and nine Big Ten titles. He coached 49 NCAA All-Americans and 32 individual Big Ten champions. Smith was head men’s and women’s cross country coach at Virginia from 1980-83. There he coached the women’s cross country team to national championships in 1981 and 1982. His first job in the college ranks came in 1979 when he served as men’s cross country coach and assistant men’s track and field coach at George Mason. A native of Alexandria, Va., Smith attended Bridgewater College and graduated in 1974 with degrees in history and political science. He was married to Renee Schwister on Feb. 12, 1999, and Renee has one son, Ross.

Dana Boone is in her fifth season as an assistant with the University of Oklahoma track and field program, serving primarily as women’s sprints, hurdles and relays coach. She was promoted to associate head women’s coach in July 2007. In just four years at Oklahoma, Boone has led athletes to 22 All-America honors and seven Big 12 titles while breaking 11 program records. Boone’s 2009 group was no different in displaying excellence in their events.

Ti’Anca Mock spearheaded the group’s efforts with an indoor-outdoor sweep of the Big 12 long jump titles, breaking program records in each event in the process. Mock was one of eight Boone-coached athletes to qualify for NCAA Championships during the season. Boone’s group accounted for all OU’s scoring in the meet as the team finished 23rd in the nation. Leslie Cole led the way with a fourth-place finish in the 400-meter dash in a program-record time of 57.20 while Scottesha Miller took seventh in the 200-meter dash.

Cole, Miller and Mock also teamed with Sherine Wells to break the OU record (43.58) in the 4x100-meter relay en route to finishing fourth in the event at NCAAs. Cole completed her eligibility at OU in 2009 as one of the program’s most decorated athletes, closing out her Oklahoma career with five All-America honors and having a hand in seven program records, four indoor and three outdoor. The summer of ‘09 also saw Cole and Mock claim top-10 finishes at the U.S. Championships, an event that Miller also qualified for, as Mock finished sixth in the long jump, the highest finish of any collegiate competitor. Boone’s third season in 2008 was highlighted by her female athletes accounting for 50 points at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships and 11 athletes, including two relays, qualifying for the NCAA Championships. In 2008, Boone took an athlete in Latoya Greaves, who was in her first year on the Division I level, and molded the native Jamaican into an athlete who would record a Big 12 sweep in the 60- and 100-meter hurdles, setting a school record in the latter with a time of 12.99. Greaves continued her outstanding year with a 100-meter hurdles title at the NCAA Midwest Regional before finishing fifth in the event at the NCAA Outdoor Championships and becoming OU’s first-ever All-American in the event. Cole continued her career improvement under Boone, earning her third career AllAmerica honor in 2008 in the 400 at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Boone’s coaching helped to place Miller, a sophomore in 2008, atop the program record book in the both the 100- and 200-meter dash with times of 11.21 and 22.79, respectively. In all, athletes under Boone recorded 29 top-10 program marks in 2008. On the men’s side, Boone worked her magic as well, guiding Sheldon Leith to NCAA All-America honors in the 60-meter hurdles, an event the Jamaican native established a program record in with a time of 7.73. Boone also helped Marcus Pugh run a career-best 10.16 in the 100 at the Big 12 Championships as well as 20.47 in the 200 at the event. The summer of 2008 provided Boone no break as Miller, Leslie Cole and Marcus Pugh saw action in the U.S. Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore. The site, nicknamed “Track Town USA,” Cole advanced to the semifinals of the 200 meter dash, finishing 14th overall. Following the Trials, Miller and Cole would claim gold medals as members of the U.S. team in the NACAC Under-23 Track & Field Championships in Toluca, Mexico. Cole took first in the 200 while Miller anchored the U.S. 4x100-meter relay to victory. Competing against her OU teammates, Greaves grabbed silver and bronze medals as a member of Jamaica’s national team.

TRACK & FIELD STAFF Boone coached Yolanda Goff, Cole, Miller and Larica Urbina to All-America honors with a fifth-place finish in the 4x100-meter relay at the NCAA Championships. The quartet also ran the two fastest times in school history at the Midwest Regional.

Boone’s athletes were keys in locking up the conference title with more than 40 percent of the team’s points coming from the sprints and relays.

During the year, Boone’s athletes also helped Sooner relays set school records in the men’s and women’s indoor distance medley relay and women’s indoor 4x400. Goff became just the second Sooner woman to earn All-America honors in the 100-meter dash and first since Laverne Jones in 2004.

It was no surprise when she was named the 2007 Midwest Region Men’s Sprints/ Hurdles Assistant Coach of the Year by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association. She was the lone woman to earn a coach of the year honor for work with a men’s team.

The Springfield, Va., native came to OU in July 2005 from LSU, where she served as recruiting coordinator and assisted with the women’s sprinters and hurdlers.

Of the 22 Sooners who qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Championships, Boone coached 13 with 10 All-America honors spread among them. Under her guidance, the OU men’s and women’s 4x100- and 4x400-meter relays all qualified for the NCAAs in the same season for the first time in school history. Her athletes also set five program individual event or relay records during the year. The Sooner men won the Big 12 title with the help of Boone’s sprinters, including Pugh’s 20-point performance benefited by a victory in the 100-meter dash and runner-up finish in the 200. The versatility of Boone’s coaching also showed as she tutored Leith and Dermillo Wise to top-five finishes in the 110-meter hurdles at the conference meet, with both later qualifying for the NCAA Championships. Miller became the first freshman to win a Big 12 title in the women’s long jump. Wise also earned third place in the long jump at the Big 12 meet and became the first Sooner since 1988 to compete in the event at the NCAA Championships, where he became an All-American. In all, Boone coached athletes who competed in 10 different events at the 2007 NCAA Championships. Boone instructed Jacobi Mitchell to All-Big 12 honors in the 100 and 200 before he anchored the men’s 4x100-meter relay to a Midwest Regional victory and AllAmerica honors at the NCAAs. Mitchell also represented his native Bahamas at the Pan American Athletics Championships and World Athletics Championships after scoring top-three finishes in the 100 and 200 at his national championship.

In 2007, Boone’s athletes delivered some of the Sooners’ most dramatic performances as she helped coach the Sooner men to their first Big 12 Outdoor Championship and Midwest Regional titles and the women to program-best conference finishes indoors and outdoors.

During the 2005 season, Boone helped guide Hazelann Regis to three of her 10 career All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Regis finished runner-up in the 400, running a school-record time of 50.62; ran fourth in the 200 and anchored the 4x400-meter relay team to fourth place. Regis also captured two Southeastern Conference titles as she won the 200 and anchored the 4x400 to a victory. Boone also trained a freshmen foursome -- Kelly Baptiste, Ashley Owens, Deonna Lawrence and Jessica Ohanaja -- that earned a fifth-place finish in the 4x100 at the national championships. Baptiste earned three All-America honors at the meet with a fourth in the 100 and eighth in the 200. Baptiste, the Mideast Regional Champion in the 100, also pulled triple duty at the Carifta Games (the under-21 Caribbean championships), taking gold in the 100 and 200 and anchoring the silver-medal-winning 4x100-meter relay. Prior to her time at LSU, Boone was an assistant coach, beginning with the 19992000 season, at the University of Texas where she oversaw field events and assisted with sprints and hurdles. Field events at Texas flourished under her watch as 15 athletes earned All-Big 12 honors, six athletes qualified for the NCAA Championships and four school records were established. On the track, Boone helped train Marshevet Hooker, who, as a freshman, qualified for the national championships in both the 100 meters and the long jump. She was also part of the Midwest Region-winning 4x100-meter relay team and the 100 champion. Hooker also made it to the semifinals of the 100 at the U.S. Olympic Trials despite being the youngest competitor in the field. During Boone’s tenure, the Longhorn women captured two indoor (2002 and 2003) and outdoor national titles (2003 and 2004). Boone also enjoyed successful stints as an assistant at Tulane, Middle Tennessee State and South Carolina, coaching sprints, hurdles and jumps at each stop.

At Tulane, Boone coached more than 15 men and women to all-conference honors, performances that led to the Green Wave’s first-ever Conference USA team championship in 1998. Boone also worked with the Green Wave football team, helping develop its speed and flexibility program. From 1994 to 1997, Boone served as an assistant at Middle Tennessee State. During that time, the Blue Raiders captured three Ohio Valley Conference titles with Boone responsible for 22 individual OVC champions, five NCAA qualifiers and one AllAmerican. Previous to MTSU, Boone spent one season at South Carolina where athletes under her tutelage established numerous school records and enjoyed the Gamecocks’ highest finish at a conference meet since joining the SEC. An accomplished jumper herself at Virginia, Boone won six ACC titles and earned All-America honors six times. She still owns the school records for indoor long jump, outdoor long jump and outdoor triple jump. Boone graduated from Virginia in 1991 with a bachelor’s in communication studies and earned her master’s in physical education from Middle Tennessee State in 1995. Boone has USATF Level 2 certification as a sprints, hurdles and jumps coach.

Coaching History

Jeremy Fischer begins his fifth season with the University of Oklahoma track and field program in charge of men’s and women’s jumps and multis. Last season Fischer’s group of jumpers continued to back up their claims as one of the top jumps programs in the nation. It was never more evident than at the 2009 NCAA Indoor Championships when three athletes, Shardae Boutte, Will Claye and Paul Gill, teamed to produce the only program in the nation with athletes in each of the three jump events, resulting in Fischer earning Midwest Region Assistant Coach of the Year honors. Claye carried the flag for Fischer’s group, smashing the program record in both the indoor and outdoor triple jump along with a 27-year old U.S. Junior record in the event en route to the NCAA, U.S. Junior, Pan Am Junior and Big 12 Outdoor Championships.

Claye also brought home All-America honors in both the triple and long jump, during both the indoor and outdoor seasons.

In 2008, Oklahoma jumpers recorded new program bests in the men’s indoor and outdoor triple jump as well as the women’s outdoor triple jump, picked up five AllAmerica honors and Big 12 titles in both indoor and outdoor triple jump along with an NCAA Midwest Regional triple jump title and a meet record. Boutte and Tydree Lewis finished 1-2 in the men’s triple jump at the Big 12 Indoor Championships as Boutte was ranked No. 1 in the nation for the majority of the indoor season and held the program record in the event before Lewis topped it with a jump of 54-2.50 (16.52) and a second-place finish at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The outdoor season marked a change in the triple jump record books, but in distance only as Boutte and Toni Smith increased the program record in their respective events at the NCAA Midwest Regional, a championship that saw Boutte bring home a title. The same meet saw Smith take third in the triple jump while long jumper Adrian Wiltshire exploded onto the scene with a third-place finish in the event. No athletes dominated their event like Fischer’s jumpers dominated the Big 12 in 2007 as no team in the conference outscored Oklahoma men or women in the jumps at the Big 12 Championships. Frankie Wright and Portia Nash swept the men’s and women’s long jump titles indoors with Nash setting the Oklahoma indoor long jump record. Boutte won the men’s triple jump title outdoors as part of a 1-2-7 finish that included Lewis and Frankie Green and boosted the men’s team to its first Big 12 title and first conference title in 29 years. Fischer also coached both the men’s and women’s Midwest Region triple jump champions with Smith claiming the women’s crown and Boutte setting the meet record en route to his victory. Smith, who rewrote the school’s indoor and outdoor triple jump records in 2007, also earned All-America honors during both the indoor and outdoor campaigns. For his work, Fischer was named the 2007 Midwest Region Men’s Jumps/Combined Events Coach of the Year by the USTFCCCA. In the high jump, Fischer coached the U.S. Junior National Champion in Kevin Snyder. Snyder went on the win silver at the Pan American Junior Athletics Championships. Fischer also coached the first athletes to represent OU in the men’s long jump at the NCAA Championships since 1988 -- Wright, who qualified for the NCAAs in four events, and Dermillo Wise. Both earned All-America honors at the Championships.

In 2006, Fischer’s squad served notice to the rest of the Big 12 that future years against them would be fiercely competitive. With Smith leading the way at the Big 12 Indoor Championships, the Sooner women placed second, fifth and sixth in the triple jump and Nash took third in the long jump. Lewis and Wright scored third- and sixth-place results in the men’s triple jump. At the Big 12 Outdoor Championships, Lewis again finished third the triple jump, freshman Katherine Johnson earned fourth in the women’s high jump and freshman Amy Backel placed sixth in the heptathlon. The freshman duo was successful again at the U.S. Junior National Championships as Johnson earned bronze in the women’s high jump and Backel finished fourth in the women’s javelin and was one of two competitors in the heptathlon to win two events. Fischer came to OU in July 2005 after five years at Cal State Northridge where he coached jumpers and decathletes and was recognized as the 2005 Mondo/NCAA Division I West Region Men’s Jumps/Multi Events Coach of the Year. Of the five student-athletes who represented the Matadors at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in 2005, four were Fischer’s jumpers. Eight of his student-athletes (both men and women) also qualified for the NCAA West Regional.

Under Fischer’s tutelage in 2002, Natoya Woods set a Northridge indoor record in the high jump and then posted the seventh best outdoor mark on the Matador career list. On the men’s side, Matt Primous, Robert Fuentes and Aaron Jones all reached the Northridge indoor top-10 list in the high jump. Prior to his time at Cal State Northridge, Fischer spent three seasons (1998-2000) as the cross country/track and field administrative assistant at Wisconsin and served as the director of the Badger Jet Camp from 1996 to 2000. During his tenure, Wisconsin won the Big Ten Triple Crown in 2000 and 2001 and finished second at the cross country national championships and fifth in track and field.

®òò²ò¾®ð¾ ñ¯®ñ»±ò

Perhaps no accomplishment was more rewarding than turning former OU volleyball player Anna Monsen into an All-Big 12 heptathlete who scored personal bests in six of seven events at the conference championships.

As an athlete, Fischer was a world-class high jumper at Wisconsin where he earned All-America and All-Big Ten honors during his time as a Badger and placed seventh at the 2000 U.S. Olympic Trials. He graduated in 1998 with a degree in molecular biology/nutritional science. Fischer starred as a two-sport student-athlete at Adolfo Camarillo High School in Camarillo, Calif., from 1991 to 1994. While also playing basketball, Fischer was an All-American on the track and in the classroom. Fischer is a Level 3 certified member of the United States Track Coaches Association and a Level 2 Instructor for jumps. Fischer also has Level 2 certification for jumps, sprints and throws and is a National Strength and Conditioning Association Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.

In 2005, the Cal State Northridge men won their second consecutive Big West Conference outdoor championship when Fischer coached junior Alex Marbley, sophomore Da’Shalle Andrews and senior Johnny Wiley, respectively, to high jump, long jump and triple jump titles. His women long jumpers swept the top three positions as sophomore Toni Smith won the conference title. Fischer’s pupils were also named conference athletes of the week numerous times. During the 2005 indoor season, Marbley, the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation high jump champion, and long jumper Jason Romero were the only two Matadors to establish qualifying marks for the NCAA Indoor Championships. Marbley, the school record holder, earned All-America honors. Long jumper Candyce Babb also set the school record on her way to an MPSF runner-up finish. In 2004, Fischer coached then-freshmen long jumper Da’Shalle Andrews and triple jumper Toni Smith to the national championships. The Matadors also captured the men’s and women’s Big West Championships with Romero named the conference’s male athlete of the year after winning the triple jump and long jump. In 2003, Marbley claimed the Big West Championship and Rashaad Dixon won the triple jump during the outdoor season. The Matador jumpers also controlled the MPSF Indoor Championship in the high jump as Jerrick Holmes won the event and Romero finished third. On the women’s side, Schaquay Brignac qualified for the NCAA Indoor Championships and set the Northridge high jump record.

Brian Blutreich, 43, a former Olympic discus thrower who has also coached three Olympians, enters his third season at the University of Oklahoma overseeing events in the throws area. In his first two seasons at Oklahoma, Blutreich (pronounced BLUE-trick) took over a dwindling throws group and laid the foundation for what the program expects to be one of its strongest areas. In his second year in Norman, Blutreich willed a group of athletes to five program records, one Big 12 title and three NCAA Championships entries. A Blutreich pupil in his first year on the collegiate level, Luke Bryant captured OU’s first conference title in the discus since 1988 when he tossed the implement a distance of 189-2 (57.66) before qualifying for the NCAA Championships in the event. Bryant was one of three Oklahoma throwers to qualify for the NCAA Championships as Amy Backel (shot put) and Mikaela Johansson (hammer throw) did so as well. The two women also earned ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America honors. Johansson broke program records in both the hammer throw and weight throw while K.P. Singh broke the men’s weight throw record during the indoor season. While competing at the U.S. Championships, freshman Karen Shump broke program records in both the indoor and outdoor shot put. Despite only having three athletes competing for him in 2008, Blutreich still managed to produce headline-grabbing results as all three individuals produced program records in their respective events. As action in 2008 moved outdoors, Backel, in her first season as a full-time thrower, and junior college transfer Buck Sullivan made their names known in the Oklahoma history books. Throwing the javelin, Backel took all of one meet under Blutreich to produce a program record. The sophomore continued to best her own record in the event throughout the season, eventually ending with a distance of 171-10 (52.39) and the program’s first-ever All-America honor in the event. The year was not done for Backel as she traveled to Eugene, Ore., for the U.S. Olympic Trials where she finished 10th. The record-setting action started in the indoor season as Johansson quickly took over the top spot on the women’s weight throw performance list at 61-5.00 (18.72). Joining Johansson in his first season in the Oklahoma program, Sullivan followed Backel’s lead in a quick rewriting of the history books. In just his third outdoor meet on the NCAA level, he set a new program record in the hammer throw with a mark of 195-6 (59.60) before improving to 196-11 (60.02). Blutreich came to OU after 11 years at the University of North Carolina where, most recently, he served as assistant men’s head coach.

Under his direction, UNC became one of the nation’s premier collegiate throws programs. In 2007, Blutreich helped Justin Ryncavage defend his ACC and NCAA outdoor titles in the men’s javelin as part of dual 1-2 sweeps with teammate Adam Montague, the NCAA East Region Champion and Field Athlete of the Year. He also guided Nick Owens to two All-America honors (NCAA runner up in the hammer and third in the weight throw) and ACC titles in the weight throw and hammer throw. His labors made him a shoo-in for his second National Assistant Coach of the Year honor as voted by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association. Owens is currently the UNC program record holder in the hammer throw (229-9/70.02) and second all-time in the weight throw (722.75/22.01). Blutreich’s successes envelop a coaching career that has developed seven individual NCAA champions, 30 All-Americans, 45 Atlantic Coast Conference event champions and 112 All-ACC performers. Blutreich-coached athletes set all 12 possible UNC

The 2006 season saw Blutreich-coached athletes win three NCAA outdoor titles, the first time North Carolina produced three national champions at the same meet. Laura Gerraughty (women’s shot put), Vikas Gowda (men’s discus) and Ryncavage (javelin) reached the top step of the winner’s podium becoming only the second program ever to win three or more throws titles in a year with three different athletes. Gerraughty would set the NCAA record in the shot put at the event with a throw of 62-10.00 (19.15) while Gowda established progam records in the shot put, both indoor (643.75) and outdoor (64-4.50), and the discus (212-3). Owens, who later won gold at the NACAC Under-23 Championships, earned third place in the hammer throw to give the Tar Heels four All-America throwers. In 2005, four UNC throwers earned All-America honors including Gowda, the Penn Relays’ Most Outstanding Male Field Athlete and World Championships qualifier, and Jocelyn White, the ACC Freshman of the Year, who won silver at the U.S. Junior National Championships and was fourth at the Pan American Junior Games. Two Blutreich disciples - Gerraughty (United States) and Gowda (India) - competed at the 2004 Olympics as part of one the greatest campaigns in UNC history. Blutreich was honored as a National Assistant Coach of the Year after guiding Gerraughty to a sweep of NCAA indoor and outdoor national shot put titles and the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Championships title, becoming the first collegiate athlete to win the women’s shot put. Several other Tar Heel throwers thrived under Blutreich in 2004. Owens was named the ACC Outdoor Freshman of the Year after winning the hammer throw. He was also the U.S. Junior National champion in the hammer, establishing a national junior

record in the process. Amy Parulis won the ACC title in the hammer; Marija Kurtovic (women’s discus) and Karen Wyzykowski (women’s javelin) were all-conference honorees.

Coaching History 2008-present: Oklahoma, assistant coach (women’s distance) 2005-2008: Oklahoma, director of operations 2002-2005: Oregon, director of operations 2001: Oregon, volunteer distance coach

Taking over the women’s distance group just prior to the beginning of the 2008 women’s cross country season, Pickens led the group to three top-five finishes and helped sophomore Kelly Waters become just the fourth runner in OU history to receive All-Big 12 honors with a fifth-place finish at the conference championship. Waters’ Big 12 finish was the second best in OU history as the sophomore qualified for the NCAA Championships with an All-Region performance at the NCAA Midwest Region. Under Pickens’ watch, three Sooners earned Academic All-Big 12 honors in 2009 as Lauren Watson and Molly Ferguson advanced to the NCAA Midwest Regional. In 2001, the Beaverton, Ore., native joined the Ducks as a volunteer men’s distance coach. That season, the cross country squad made its 27th national championship appearance and finished 13th in the 31-team field. The team also claimed third place in the Pac-10 Conference and West Region at meets that boasted five and seven, respectively, top-25 ranked teams. On the track, 10,000-meter runner Jason Hartmann tallied his second top-four NCAA finish (fourth) and was second among the collegians at the USA Track and Field Championships (eighth). Five other Oregon distance runners - Adam Bergquist (3,000 meters), Eric Logsdon (5,000 meters), John Lucas (5,000 meters) and Noel Paulson (mile) - registered either indoor or outdoor NCAA provisional marks. Pickens has an extensive knowledge of endurance training, kinesiology and physiology as well as a background in teaching and computer programming. Before joining the Ducks’ staff, Pickens assisted Oregon-area post-collegiate coach Dr. Richard Brown, who has trained several Olympians. Earlier in his career, Pickens also served as an advisor to former Eugene, Ore., resident Steve Plascencia, a two-time Olympian and World Championships qualifier in the 5,000 and 10,000. In 1998, Pickens earned a master’s degree in exercise physiology from the University of Oregon, with a graduate thesis on endurance training and its effect on calcium uptake in skeletal muscle. He received his bachelor’s degree from Oregon State University in physical education in 1986 and served as a teaching assistant in the respiratory dynamics lab. He has had various articles published on training, including one in the Medicine and Science and in Sport and Exercise journal. Pickens began his initial association with the University of Oregon as a graduate and undergraduate computer instructor from 1987 to 1993 in statistical, physical education and writing courses. Afterwards, he continued to serve as an instructor in the University’s Continuation Center for Microsoft Word, Excel and Works classes. As an athlete, Pickens competed in 5,000- and 10,000-meter races from 1984 to 1992 and still runs recreationally. Pickens and his wife, Becky, have two sons, Isaiah and Aiden.

The fourth season of the Martin Smith era saw the University of Oklahoma men’s track and field program paint a bright picture for the future as a number of young stars were constantly highlighted in the headlines.

With his performance, Claye became just the third athlete in the history of the men’s program to earn two indoor All-America honors in the same year and the first to accomplish the feat without competing on a relay.

Throughout the 2009 season, five program records were broken and five All-America honors were earned, all by Sooner underclassmen who return in 2010.

Another highlight of the indoor season was Boone becoming the first-ever OU athlete to run a sub-four minute mile when the sophomore did so on Feb. 7 at the Meyo Invitational in South Bend, Ind.

By the end of the season, athletes who return in 2010 accounted for 28 top10 performances in OU history.

Boone’s 3:59.07 time also edged the previous program record of 4:03.66 held by current Sooner Rob Sorrell.

After finishing fifth at the Big 12 Indoor Championships, seven Oklahoma men headed south to College Station, Texas, for the 2009 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships.

The mile was not the only program record Boone was involved with during the 2009 indoor season as he teamed with Scott Cooper, Jarell Warren and Chris Sweeney on the distance medley relay that finished 10th at the NCAA Championships after breaking the program record with a time of 9:31.38 on March 6 at the Alex Wilson Invitational.

Led by 17-year old freshman Will Claye, the group accounted for 14 points and a 16th-place finish as Claye (long jump, triple jump) and Jacob Boone (mile) garnered All-America honors. At the championships, Claye put together one of the most impressive efforts by a first-year athlete as he narrowly finished second in the triple jump, shattering the program record in the event, and third in the long jump. Competing on a bruised heel, Claye’s top jump of 55-1.50 (16.80) was eclipsed by Florida’s Christian Taylor, 55-8.50 (16.98), on the final attempt of the night.

Rounding out the broken program record reel in the indoor season was K.P. Singh in the weight throw. The junior broke the record early in the season and extended it throughout, finishing with a best of 67-2.75 (20.49) at the NCAA Last Chance Qualifier in Ames, Iowa. In the outdoor season, Claye and Luke Bryant led all Oklahoma men with eight and five individual event titles, respectively. Building off the indoor season, Claye broke all types of records outside: program, facility, meet and U.S. records.

With a Big 12 title on the line, Claye responded with authority, breaking the 27-year old U.S. Junior national triple jump record in the process, with a jump of 55-9.75 (17.01). Claye was not done rewriting the record books. Two weeks after breaking the John Jacobs Track and Field Complex record along with the NCAA Midwest Regional record, Claye became OU’s 13th individual national champion with a jump of 56-6.75 (17.24) on his 18th birthday. The youth movement overtaking the program was evident in the throws ring as well as Bryant picked up OU’s 11th conference discus title with a winning throw of 189-2 (57.66) on his first attempt at the Big 12 Championships in Lubbock, Texas. Claye and Bryant were joined by another freshman, Mookie Salaam, at the NCAA Championships as the Oklahoma program was the only one in the nation to have a NCAA squad with multiple athletes consisting of only freshmen. Following the season, Claye and four others from the men’s program, all freshmen, traveled to Eugene, Ore., for the U.S. Junior Championships where Claye destroyed the competition in the triple jump, winning by over five feet with a distance of 56-3.00 (17.14). With the performance, Claye, along with long jumper Alex Madkins, was named to the U.S. team for the Pan Am Junior Championships where Claye added yet more hardware to his trophy case, winning the triple jump title with a jump of 54-4.50 (16.57).

In the fourth season under head coach Martin Smith and associate head coach Dana Boone, the University of Oklahoma women’s track and field program continued to show steady improvement with a good outlook for the future with only four seniors on the 2009 squad. The program continued its stay in the top half of the Big 12 Conference with a sixth-place finish at both the 2009 Big 12 Indoor Championships and the 2009 Big 12 Outdoor Championships. Throughout the season, the squad combined for 45 individual titles to go along with 11 program records and eight NCAA All-America honors. One of the four seniors, Leslie Cole closed out her Oklahoma career as one of the most accomplished athletes in Sooner Track and Field history. Cole closed out her Oklahoma career with five All-America honors and was a part of seven program records, four indoor and three outdoor. Cole was one of seven women to qualify for the 2009 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships where she and three others combined for six NCAA All-America honors. Cole earned her final fifth and final All-America honor of her career after finishing fourth in the 400-meter dash at the NCAAs as she broke the Oklahoma program record in the event with a time of 51.20, an effort she had already accomplished in the indoor season with a time of 52.33 Cole broke two program records during the indoor season, doing so in the 600-yard run as well with a time of 1:20.01. Another Sooner making headlines in 2009 was sophomore Ti’Anca Mock, who found herself atop the medal stand at the Big 12 Championships in both the indoor and outdoor seasons.

4¯ð² .¸²¾»

Not only did Mock sweep the Big 12 titles in the long jump, the Navasota, Texas, native swept the program records in the event as well. Already the program record holder in the event entering the Big 12 Indoor Championships, Mock captured the conference title for the Sooners on her sixth and final jump. Mock provided less drama during the outdoor season as the program record holder won the event outright on her first attempt of the night to bring home OU’s second Big 12 outdoor long jump title in three years. Following the indoor conference title, Mock took her talent to the national level where she earned her first All-America honor in the event. The other Sooner to win a Big 12 outdoor long jump title in the last three years, Scottesha Miller, did not slow down in adding to her athletics resume as she earned three All-America honors in 2009. The first came during the indoor season as Miller brought home the honor in the 200-meter dash at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Miller followed up the indoor season with the same honor, the third of her career, during the outdoor season with a seventh-place finish in the 200-meter dash at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Cole, Miller and Mock were not done adding to the ever-expanding list of All-Americans for the OU women’s program, however, as the three teamed with freshman Sherine Wells to not only break the program record in the 4x100-meter relay but also finish fourth in the NCAA Outdoor Championships with a time of 43.58. The quartet now owns four of the six fastest times in program history.

Two Oklahoma female throwers accomplished the indoor/outdoor program record sweep in the weight/hammer throw and the shot put. While Mikaela Johansson broke both the weight and hammer throw records en route to accumulating seven individual titles for the Sooners, freshman Karen Shump broke both shot put titles on the national stage while redshirting both the indoor and outdoor season. Shump broke the indoor record with a third-place finish at the USA Indoor Track and Field Championships and followed the performance in the outdoor season with a 10th-place finish, breaking the OU record in the process.

HISTORY

John Clark Jacobs was an institution at the University of Oklahoma. The laconic, modest fellow, known for his honesty and dry humor, coached OU track and field, beginning in 1922, and cross country teams, beginning in 1928, for 46 seasons. His 37 years as a head coach are the most by any coach of any sport in the Sooners’ history. OU’s on-campus track and field facility bears his name and hosts an annual meet bearing his name. The lanky farmer’s boy was born September 9, 1892, at his family’s Garland, Texas, homestead. He attended high school in Mangum, Okla., where he excelled as a baseball player. Jacobs first stepped foot on the Norman campus in 1912 and became hooked on track after seeing his first meet; he tried out for the sport to escape the “boredom” of physical education classes. Jacobs was high point scorer of the Southwest Conference Championships in 1914 and once held school records in the high hurdles, low hurdles, high jump and long jump. He also ran the anchor leg on the Sooners’ mile relay team. He married co-ed Daphne Dobson, a music major, in 1915, graduated the next year and took jobs teaching and coaching at high schools in Corsicana and Sherman, Texas, and Ponca City, Okla.

long to find success as they won the Big Six championship the next year. Despite the anonymity of the sport, Jacobs’ humor animated it. Before a 1952 dual with Colorado, Jacobs joked, “I’m makin’ Colorado carry the heaviest jersey numbers.” He chuckled as the teams left the start. His team wore numbers 30 through 35. The Buffaloes had been assigned 203 through 208. The coach’s unyielding integrity was illustrated during a wartime dual meet with Kansas. The result went down to the final mile relay. Oklahoma won the race and the meet when John Sharp, its anchor, dove beneath the string to pass the Kansas anchor, igniting the crowd into a frenzy that blocked Jacobs’ view of the finish. Legendary Kansas coach Bill Easton protested to Jacobs that the Kansas runner’s feet had crossed the finish line first, so Jacobs assembled the judges and explained the rule. The judges declared Kansas the victor. A 14-inch walnut plaque presented to him in 1958 by fellow Big Eight Conference coaches expressed their opinion of him. “To John Jacobs,” the inscription read, “A spirited but friendly and always honorable opponent.” He traded jobs with his assistant, Bill Carroll, at his own request, in 1958 and remained with the program for eight more years. He retired in 1966 as an associate to J.D. Martin.

“I didn’t know nothin’ about nothin’,” he said. “A former Texas player who owned a coal yard helped me. I’d go see him in the evening and he’d take 11 chunks of coal and show me some plays.” His Sherman football team went undefeated and won the Texas State Championship. Jacobs returned to his alma mater in 1922 at the request of athletics director Bennie Owen and became the school’s first track and field coach. Track scholarships did not exist at the time, so Jacobs brought athletes to Oklahoma by finding them part-time jobs. Much of what he found was noted for its amusing variety. He found midnight jobs for athletes like Ansel Young, who worked nights at the railway express office and often had to be awakened from his room in the afternoon to throw the javelin at home meets. Parker Shelby, three-time Drake Relays high jump champion, worked as an attendant at the State Hospital in downtown Norman. Floyd Lochner, an NCAA two-mile champion, brought a jersey cow to campus and arose before dawn to milk and sell its product on his customer route. Jacobs was also forced to train his athletes in adverse conditions. Since OU did not have a steam-heated indoor track like other conference schools, his squad practiced on an unheated layout beneath the east stands of the football stadium in the winter that Jacobs coined “Pneumonia Downs.” When water from melting snow leaked through the football seats overhead down onto the tiny dirt track, the runners brought out their umbrellas and shivered through practices. “Only kids raised on cornbread and bean soup can stand it under there,” Jacobs quipped. “The bottle babies won’t last.” His indoor teams swept three consecutive conference championships from 1927 to 1929 and his outdoor squads won 19 consecutive dual meets between 1924 and 1929 and the conference title in 1934. Jacobs was the head coach of the first cross country team in 1928. It did not take him

Jacobs was head coach for 37 years, outlasting all other head coaches in Oklahoma history.

*Drake *D k also l coached h d bbasketball k b ll ffrom 1939-55.

A legacy to remember John Jacobs’ specialty was converting underachievers into champions.

A place in history Jacobs was honored several times during and after his coaching career.

In 1950, Jacobs sculpted Bruce Drummond, a cross country standout from Tulsa who did not even place in the state mile his senior year, into a college miler who could run 440 yards in 49 seconds and set a Texas Relays mile record.

He was inducted into the Helms Foundation Hall of Fame in 1957, the Oklahoma Athletic Hall of Fame in 1977 and the Coaches Hall of Fame at the 71st Drake Relays in 1980 along with Notre Dame’s Knute Rockne and Ed Weir of Nebraska. Jacobs was also named honorary referee of the Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays.

Jacobs turned Warren Rouse, an unknown Tonkawa, Okla., undergrad, into a Big Seven outdoor two-mile champion after discovering him at an intramural track meet in 1951.

“An honorary referee is like an honorary pallbearer,” Jacobs remarked, “too old to carry the casket.”

He coached Caroline McDermott, who lived three blocks away from him, to the National Junior AAU Women’s 80-meter low hurdles championship.

Jacobs was a lifelong Sooner and so were his sons. Bill was an accomplished high jumper and basketball player and John, Jr. was a member of the golf team.

Jacobs also fancied coaching odd events like the septathlon and steeplechase and was an American pioneer of the triple jump.

Jacobs died in Waco, Texas, at the age of 85 following a long illness. He is buried in Norman.

Oklahoma placed first, second and fourth in the triple jump at the 1946 Drake Relays, with Bill Weaver, a drama major who later changed his name to Dennis and won an Emmy for his role as Chester in “Gunsmoke”, joining John Gough and Hobo Gilstrap on the podium.

In his mind, he was around simply because he had always been around. He never believed he deserved accolades from what his athletes accomplished.

Unlike many track coaches who raucously strolled the infield during a meet, Jacobs would retreat as far from the action as possible, posting himself in the stadium bleachers or beneath the end zone scoreboard. He believed that a track meet was for the athletes and coaches should be neither seen nor heard.

“The secret to track coaching,” explained Jacobs, “is to find a real good man who can beat heck out of anybody else. He’ll make you look like the best coach in the world.” Jacobs believed that many could do the job as well as he. History believes differently.

Jacobs wore blue serge suits, black shoes and a soft gray hat. He carried pocketfuls of candy and smoked carelessly, holding his cigarettes between his thumb and index finger and flaring his remaining fingers to brush off the ash. Jacobs formed the original design of the current Oklahoma track and field complex that bears his name by angling the grandstand away from the straightaway so fans did not have to stand to see all the action. During his tenure, Jacobs coached four Olympians—Tom Churchill, Glenn Dawson, J.W. Mashburn and Neville Price—and five NCAA champions. In two months, Jacobs took Mashburn from a 440-yard runner into a decathlon champion at the Kansas Relays.

Bill Carroll was John Jacobs’ handpicked replacement as cross countryy and track and field coach at the University of Oklahoma. Carroll was virtually a carbon copy of Jacobs—a tall, lanky former OU track star with two sons, who were coincidentally ally named John and William. Carroll was truly Jacobs’ protégé and was elated to have his mentor continue as an assistant. “I can never fill his shoes,” Carroll acknowledged. “He’s forgotten more re than I’ll ever know. I’m gladdest of all that he is staying on.” Carroll’s impact on the OU program was immediate. His first season netted fourth place at the cross country conference championship, hampionship, a second-place finish at indoor track championships and third during the outdoor season. The coach guided his Sooners to a Big Eight Indoor Championship in 1960, his second season, breaking Kansas’ eight-year monopoly of the indoor title. In his third year, Carroll steered OU to its first outdoor conference title in 27 years, bumping mping the Jayhawks off yet another throne and their nine-year reign of the outdoor championship. mpionship. The Sooners won the outdoor again the next year. Carroll’s quick success delivered several honors. In 1959, Carroll won an AAU polling of the nation’s track coaches to determine coaches of American teams on foreign tours. As the leading vote getter, Carroll oll got first choice of the tours and chose to direct an American team bound for Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Switzerland. In 1962, during his fourth year at the helm, Carroll was named honorary rary referee of the Arkansas Relays. C.A. Bidwell, the Arkansas coach, wrote to Carroll, “Your outstandingg contribution to track is known throughout the country and we will be privileged to have you accept this assignment for our relays.” Carroll also accepted an invitation that summer to coach the U.S. military litary team in the Conseil International du Sport Militare Track and Field Championships, ps, a 14-nation meet held in The Netherlands. The Okemah, Okla., native was a state high school pole vault champion ion in 1943, crossing an 11-foot bar with a pole he borrowed from the Sooner track team.. He also won consecutive high school regional championships. After high school, Carroll served a four-year tour of duty for the Navyy during World War II. Carroll rewrote the record books as a member of the OU track team from 1947 to 1950. He set the meet record with a 14 foot, 5 inch vault at the Kansas Relays ays in 1950 and won the award for most outstanding athlete. The vault was also a school chool record that held for nine years until J.D. Martin, the 1960 NCAA pole vault champion pion and Carroll’s future replacement, eclipsed it. Carroll also tied for second place at the he 1949 NCAA Championships in Los Angeles. Before returning to his alma mater as an assistant, Carroll coached att Southwestern College in Winfield, Kan., and Wentworth Military Academy in Lexington, gton, Mo. Carroll passed away on Dec. 4, 2009 in Okemah, Okla.

J.D. Martin gave up Olympic glory to become the University of Oklahoma’s thenyoungest coach ever at the age of 25. “I’ve always dreamed of some day coaching at Oklahoma,” Martin once said. “The OU job was the only one I ever wanted.” Martin replaced Bill Carroll, who shifted careers to banking, after spending two years teaching industrial arts and physical education at Midwest City schools…that, and competing for a spot on the U.S. Olympic decathlon team. Martin grew up in, Erick, Okla., the son of farmer-ranchers. He never fantasized of athletic glory or even leaving the farm; he expected to take over the land his parents toiled when he grew older. Fate would have it differently. The towering 6-foot-5-inch Martin was built for athletic stardom. Despite having more interest in both football and basketball, it was his high school principal who first introduced track to young J.D. as a means of developing his fundamental skills in the other two sports—a principal who just a few years earlier cut baseball in favor of adding track and field. Martin demonstrated an uncanny knack for pole vaulting and it became his favorite pastime. Each of the neighborhood kids would dig pits in their backyards and practice their vaults after school each day. Martin would show up with a bamboo pole cut from his father’s tree and stood uncontested at every home. In 1957, he won the state championship in the pole vault and placed second in the low hurdles. His talents, self described as “not being that good” earned him a scholarship from legendary OU coach John Jacobs. College success came quickly. Martin finished second in the 1959 NCAA Championships, his sophomore year, and won the national title the next. Martin also swept the Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays in 1960, setting meet records at Austin and Des Moines.

He won Big Eight Conference indoor and outdoor championships and surpassed the world record with a sail of 15 feet, 9 ¾ inches during a meet in Norman that was disallowed because the stand was turned around to keep the high wind from blowing the bar off. He was a collegiate All-American in 1959, 1960 and 1961 and a member of the AAU All-America Team in 1960. But, Martin wanted another challenge. OU coach Bill Carroll allowed Martin to participate in the decathlon events his senior year only after much nagging. He trained with future star Bill Toomey. Martin taught Toomey how to do vaults and hurdles while Toomey taught Martin how to compete in dashes. He finished third at the AAU Championships, setting a new pole vault record, and won the gold medal at the 1963 Pan American Games in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Martin was set on advancing through the Olympic Trials when the call came from then-athletics director Gomer Jones. Martin became as accomplished of a coach as he was an athlete. During his tenure he became recognized as one of the nation’s premiere men’s and women’s track and field coaches. He coached 22 national champions and more than 200 All-Americans, including every Sooner ever named to an All-American cross country team. Martin’s success with student-athletes may be attributed to the relationships he kept with them. “J.D. was close to his athletes,” said Pete Kron, who spent 23 years as an assistant with Martin after winning four letters from OU track and field. “He made it a point to know them not only as athletes, but as people. That makes a difference.” Martin turned kids like John Lee Smith, who was considered a potential academic failure by his high school coaches, into a 3.0 GPA business student who became the director of athletics at Langston University and Randy Wilson, an Iowa farm boy and

HISTORY average runner, into a member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic 800-meter squad. When Martin took over the women’s team in 1978, he kept his success rate high, developing 30 women into All-Americans in 18 years. J.D. Martin announced his retirement after 33 years. During his tenure, the Sooners produced national champions in the two-mile relay (1977 and 1980) and mile relay (1982, 1983 and 1984). The 1984 mile relay team became the first NCAA Division I team in history to win both the indoor and outdoor titles in the same season. In his final season as OU’s head coach in 1997, his 1,600-meter relay team of Roxbert Martin, Danny McFarlane, Ryan Kite and Edward Clarke won the national championship and set the fastest time run in the world that year at the Big 12 Outdoor Championships. Roxbert Martin also became a national champion in the 400-meter dash as a sophomore. He produced 13 All-Americans that year and his squad finished a school-best fourth in the NCAA Outdoor Championships. “J.D. Martin is a very special person,” former associate athletics director Marita Hynes said. “He has been a great teacher, coach and mentor to many young people and his dedication and contributions to Oklahoma athletics will always be remembered.” Martin was bestowed with several honors. He was inducted into the Drake Relays Coaches Hall of Fame in 1990, watched two of his athletes -- Jason Rouser, of the gold medal-winning U.S. 1,600-meter relay team, and Roxbert Martin, of the bronze medal-winning Jamaican 1,600-meter relay team -- stand on the same Olympic podium in 1996 in Atlanta. He is honored annually by OU with the J.D. Martin Invitational track meet. However, his most amazing accomplishment may be his least decorated. After a 10-year layoff from competition, Martin entered the National Seniors’ Decathlon meet in 1974 where he not only won his division, but set a record and outscored the winner of the age divison below his own. Entering 1964, Martin was aiming for Olympic gold. Four decades later and counting, hundreds of athletes are happy he never got it.

Oklahoma wanted to bring in someone familiar with the program when J.D. Martin retired in 1997. That is one of the reasons the administration brought in former Sooner Jill Lancaster. Lancaster came back to OU with extensive coaching experience. She got her first coaching job as an OU assistant (1983-86) after competing for the team for four seasons (1978-81). Lancaster built the Sooner combined event program from scratch. Her athletes scored in the Big 12 in each of her final six years and recorded most of the top 10 all-time marks in school history. While she worked primarily with the combined event entries and the vertical jumpers, she played a key role in the recruiting of a number of other Sooners including several NCAA qualifiers. The coaching staff built by Lancaster and co-head coach Rodney Price led the Sooner women to an all-time best finish of fourth in the 2004 NCAA Midwest Regional. She led two Sooners to Big 12 titles. Justin Conkling won the Big 12 heptathlon title in February 2001, the first Sooner man to win a Big 12 combined event title. In that same meet, Janel Hayes won the long jump title. Lancaster celebrated her first Sooner All-Americans when Hayes earned the honor in the long jump in 2001 with her 10th-place finish at the NCAAs. One day later, Conkling finished fifth in the decathlon to earn All-America honors as well. Hayes later earned NCAA Woman of the Year honors for the state of Oklahoma. Lancaster spent four years at Kansas State before accepting the job at OU in 1997. While she was with the Wildcat track program, Lancaster’s duties included overseeing the sprinters, hurdlers and jumpers. In addition, Lancaster was in charge of recruiting and helped bring one of the largest classes in the school’s history to Manhattan. The Wildcats hosted the U.S. Indoor Track and Field Multi-Event Championship in 1996 and 1997 and Lancaster served as meet director for the event. Before her four-year stint at Kansas State, Lancaster served as the head women’s track coach at Toledo. While at Toledo, Lancaster was a two-time Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year, in 1990 and 1992. She also helped develop long jumper Candy Campbell, who jumped 21-1.5, to become the first track & field All-American in Toledo’s history. Lancaster helped guide her athletes to 30 MAC titles, as well as 29 outdoor and 27 indoor school records. During the 1987-88 track season, Lancaster was an assistant coach at Kansas. She began her coaching career at OU as an assistant coach under legendary J.D. Martin. As a student-athlete at OU, Lancaster was a three-time All-American. After her collegiate career was completed, she continued her competitive career and went on to win the 1988 TAC Indoor National Championship pentathlon. She also finished fourth in the heptathlon at the TAC Outdoor National Championship the same year. Following the TAC Championships, Lancaster had a strong showing at the Olympic Trials, placing 14th in the heptathlon. She also was a part of four national combined event teams. She is listed on the all-time American ranking list for her performances during the 1988 track & field season in the heptathlon.

At Oklahoma, Rodney Price produced several conference champions including Michael Blackwood, whose winning time in the 2000 Big 12 Outdoor meet stood as the world’s fastest time for nearly a month. He also coached Staneshia Bell, the first Sooner woman to win a Big 12 indoor title.

His Sooners also did well at the national level, adding more than 40 names to the All-America list including Alesha Peel, LaBoris Bean and the 2001 men’s outdoor 1600-meter relay. He continued to work with Blackwood after the sprinter’s collegiate career ended. In September 2002, Blackwood ended the IAAF season as the number one ranked 400-meter runner in the world. In August 2004, Blackwood competed in the Olympic Games in the 400-meter dash and on the 1600-meter relay as a member of Jamaica’s team. Another member of that relay team was Davian Clarke, another sprinter coached by Price during his tenure at the University of Miami. Prior to coming to OU, Price served as the men’s track coach at the University of Miami (Fla.) for seven years. With the Hurricanes, he coached four All-Americans, including Clarke. Clarke was a bronze medalist for the Jamaican National team at the 1996 Olympic Summer Games in Atlanta, Ga. That same year, Clarke won the 1996 NCAA 400 meter outdoor title. After coaching Clarke to Miami’s first national championship, Price was named the 1996 USA Track and Field Florida Coach of the Year. Under his guidance, UM track athletes set 34 outdoor and 25 indoor school records. In 1992 the Hurricanes became a member of the Big East Conference, Price guided his athletes to four Big East Most Outstanding Performer titles and helped them set three Big East records. From 1977-79 Price was a physical education and after school recreation teacher at Parkway Elementary in Lubbock, Texas. He then became the track coach at Smylie Wilson Junior High, where he stayed from 1979-1982. In 1982 he moved to McAlester, Okla., where he was the assistant football and head track coach until 1984. From there he went to Lubbock High School, where he was the assistant football and assistant track coach from 1984-86. Price also spent time at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. At NEO, Price assembled Norsemen teams that produced seven NJCAA All-Americans. Price then served a stint at Nebraska where he directed the women’s sprinters and hurdlers. Under his guidance, Cornuhusker student-athletes earned All-America honors 12 times. A native of Wilburton, Okla., Price began his competitive collegiate career at Eastern Oklahoma State College. As a freshman, Price set a national junior college meet record with his time of 13.83 in the 120-yard high hurdles. After completing his junior college career, Price went on to compete for Texas Tech during his junior and senior seasons.

Lancaster was inducted into the Drake Relays Hall of Fame after winning the heptathlon title five times.
